The Totem of Undying is dropped by a mob called the Evoker. Evokers look like grey villagers with green robes.

These mobs types are known as illagers. There are 3 and only Evokers drop a Totem of Undying. They are hostile towards the player.
By killing an Evoker, you will also unlock:

Where do Evokers spawn?
The Evoker only spawns in Woodland Mansions which in turn only spawns in the roofed forest biome. Evokers only spawn with the initial spawn of the mansion and do not respawn or despawn.

How do I use the Totem of Undying?
You must be holding the Totem of Undying in either hand and receive fatal damage (i.e jumping off a cliff.)

It seems like that with the latest update the changed something, because I created several worlds with the seed but the Mansion never spawns. Did it on Easy, Normal and Hard, with Bonus Chest on and Off, Fire Spread On and Off.....
But to no avail, the Mansion refuse to spawn in/be created.

Anybody else has got this problem?

Still works as of 2.10.2020. for me he was up the stairs turn right, 2nd or 3rd door. Took a few tries to beat him without a weapon, but I'm a glutton for punishment.

The other solutions here describe wonderfully how to get this achievement, however the seeds provided may not work anymore due to game updates. That is why I am just offering help for people who want the achievement quickly as I have a map that has you spawn right next to the mansion

Send me a message on Xbox and I'll reply when I can and get you that achievement. I may show up as offline, but I do read all my messages. All I ask in return is for a nice up-vote. wave

Try seed 3964572094364597199. This code works as of 8/1/2017 4/9/2019.
I got Cheating Death, and Feeling ill from this seed code.
I had to craft a sword and Armour out of iron first. Before going in the mansion.

If the seed code stops working. Please comment below. compute

Good luck. toast

Easiest way I've found to get this is in the Battle Minigame. Hop into a private lobby with you and a guest acc, and just take a ton of damage while dodging death. Eventually, Totems will start to spawn in chests (not sure if it's all the chests, as I've only hung around the centre).
Take one of the totems and have it in your hand, and just proceed to throw yourself off the highest thing you can find nearby. As far as I'm aware, none of the drops in any default map are high enough to kill you outright, so you're going to have to make maybe two or three trips.
You'll get this when you die and respawn, so it doesn't matter whether you win or lose.

While boosting my Battle minigame wins and damage achievements, I noticed that there was a Totem of Undying in the chests in the center of the arena. Keep opening them and you'll come across one within a game or two.

In order to unlock this achievement, you will need:
1. To find a Woodland Mansion (these are really large dark oak mansions and are pretty hard to miss).
and
2. Have decent armour and weapons (I recommend at least iron).

(NOTE: YOUR WORLD'S DIFFICULTY MUST BE EASY OR HIGHER.)

An easy way to find a woodland mansion is to make a Classic sized world and make the Biomes small. You should eventually find one.

Now that you have completed the basics, we'll start with the harder part.

In order to obtain a Totem of Undying, you will need to find an Evoker. These mobs look like Vindicators, but with black robes. Once you find them, do not hesitate to charge immediately and kill it with your sword before it summons any Vexes. It should drop the Totem after dying.

Now, you will need to die while holding the totem. The easiest and fastest way for me is to jump off of a cliff. Once you land you should be alive again and the Totem should hover up in front of you and disappear.
By this point the achievement should unlock.
